I cant say on the one you are looking at but I did run a repair shop for over 30 years now,, and sold Ford new in the 70's,, I can say in my shop I worked on ten times as many IH units as Ford units,, and there is plenty of both here,, main things on the Fords was clutches, hyd pumps and pto clutch repairs and injection pumps due to lack of service,, very few engine rebuilds,, the IH repairs were TA/clutches, rear end,axle, shifting problems galore, mcv pumps hitch pumps,, leaking lower 3pt arm bushings front axle steering parts,, engine in them lasted ok but were much like the Fords,, no low end torque,, I seen about the same number of over hauls on both brands there,, I would take a Ford any day over a IH heck I am flat out Not a Deere guy and I would take a Green one also any day over the IH but Ford would sure be long before a Green one,, just personal experience from repairing and operating points,, I have never seen a dual power out here ever,, not saying they do not fail just never seen one here,, I changed so many torques out I could still do one in my sleep,, a Horrible job to do on the 66 and 86 Series,, great for shop labor income though,, when I was at the Ford dealership we sold four maybe five of the Bigger models a year 9600/9700 later the TW Series,, I still know where half a dozen we sold new are today in the same family so I have to say they were not bad units,, I do not know of any IH units here bought new and still in the same family almost everyone today around here is just a loader/haying tractor,, if you worked them hard here they fell in a heap fast,, the Fords were abused and beaten by many and yet are still there,, I cant speak for any other area than here,, but here Ford does a fine job
